buy a box cake mix in the grocery store. if you want to add stuff to it buy the book ''The Cake Mix Doctor". It gives you different options of what to add, how much, and how to tweak the bake time and temp to make sure it comes out right. The book is about $15 I think but well worth it.

The most easiest way to bake a cake is go buy the betty crocker cake mix in the box. All you need to add is water/milk. There is some box out there that requires to add eggs and oil too, but that's all you add. Those cakes taste good.
